bisect: squelch "fatal: ref HEAD not a symref" misleading message
To get the current HEAD when we start bisecting using for example "git bisect start", we first try "git symbolic-ref HEAD" to get a nice name, and if it fails, we fall back to "git rev-parse --verify HEAD". The problem is that when "git symbolic-ref HEAD" fails, it displays "fatal: ref HEAD not a symref", so it looks like "git bisect start" failed and does not accept detached HEAD, even if in fact it worked fine. This patch adds "-q" option to the "git symbolic-ref" call to get rid of the misleading error message.
